Meet the new PEC Steering Committee

PEC Welcomes New Leadership

to Steering Committee

At our national conference, Down-to-Earth Advocacy and Action,
at Montreat Conference Center last week, Presbyterians for Earth Care
introduced our new Steering Committee for 2015-2016, welcoming two new members.
Sue Regier was voted in as the new Treasurer, replacing Sue Smith who served
the organization for more than six years and David Sholin was voted to take
Rick Owen’s place as Southwest Regional Representative.

Sue Regier has been a member of PEC since 2004 and has many
years of experience managing finances. She has been on the finance
committee at the Church of Reconciliation in Chapel Hill NC since 2010.
She is experienced in tracking funds, writing grants and managing grants
through her professional work managing land acquisition planning and
implementation for the NC State Parks System. Her passion for faith-based
justice is rooted in her family where her parents worked for social justice
causes from a faith perspective. Sue lives in Durham NC.

David Sholin returns to the PEC Steering Committee having previously served beginning in 2003. While on the Steering Committee he was
active on the Membership and Fundraising Committees. Prior to being on the
Steering Committee, he served on the PEC Nominating Committee. David lives in
Phoenix, AZ.

A few other changes have occurred on the Steering Committee, as
well. Diane Waddell remains as our committed and hard-working Moderator, but
Abby Mohaupt, previously our At-Large Representative, is the new Vice
Moderator. Holly Hallman, former Vice Moderator, returned to her former
position as Northwest Regional Representative. Kathleen Dove, Dana Eglinton,
Nancy Fayer, and Paul Henschen remain in their positions as Regional
Representatives.

Our gratitude and thanksgiving go to Curt Karns, Rick Owen, and
Sue Smith who have served PEC so well during the past few years.
